Bomb Threats Saudi Arabia

A postal carrier caused a bomb scare when he left a bundle of letters for Americans living in a building across from the scene of a deadly November bombing in the Saudi capital, Riyadh, a U.S. Embassy official said. A bomb squad and about 40 police officers rushed to the scene and sealed off the area, where about 70 American families live, said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity.
